Alright, I gave it another shot...
GRASS_HOME is the location of the GRASS source tree. If you don't have > the GRASS source tree, it should be unset. > Okay, I turned it off by putting "#" in front of it. Now the line looks like this: # GRASS dirs # GRASS_HOME = /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6 Its value is used to initialise a few other variables, which need to > be changed when building without the source tree: > > ARCH_DISTDIR = $(GRASS_HOME)/dist.$(ARCH) > ARCH_BINDIR = $(GRASS_HOME)/bin.$(ARCH) > ERRORLOG = $(GRASS_HOME)/error.log > > If you're building against an installed version, ARCH_DISTDIR should > be set to the installation directory (e.g. /usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC6), > ARCH_BINDIR shouldn't matter, and ERRORLOG can be set to any absolute > filename. Alright. I took out the variable $ARCH_DISTDIR and replaced it with /opt/grass/. So the three lines the GRASS dirs are now: # GRASS dirs # GRASS_HOME = /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6 RUN_GISBASE = /usr/src/packages/BUILD/grass-6.4.0RC6/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu RUN_GISRC = /opt/grass/demolocation/.grassrc${GRASS_VERSION_MAJOR}${GRASS_VERSION_MINOR} Also, you need to override MODULE_TOPDIR on the command line, e.g.: make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC6 This is used to locate the *.make files, so setting in those files won't work. Alright. Tried it out by navigating into the folder with r.area. Here are the results: l...@pc19384:~/r.area> sudo make MODULE_TOPDIR=/opt/grass/ mkdir -p /bin.i686-pc-linux-gnu mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/include/grass mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/etc mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/driver mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/driver/db mkdir -p /dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/fonts gcc -I/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/include -O2 -DPACKAGE=\""grassmods"\" -I/dist.i686-pc-linux-gnu/include -o OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/main.o -c main.c main.c:19:23: schwerwiegender Fehler: grass/gis.h: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden Kompilierung beendet. make: *** [OBJ.i686-pc-linux-gnu/main.o] Fehler 1 Unfortunately no improvement.
